Great for retro gaming.

This gamepad is excellent. It is the best controller I know of at the moment for retro gaming. I am running Vista and it installed without any problems. The profiler software is great. With the switch on the back of the controller set to "D" you can map all the controls to keyboard keys. This means you can play old adventure games like Ultima IV almost entirely without using the keyboard. The switch on the back must be set to "D" to use the profiler software. Also pressing the mode button on the top will swap the D pad and left analog stick.

The xbox controller does feel more sturdy but the Logitech feels fine. I don't get the impression the buttons or sticks will fail soon. For regular gaming I would prefer the xbox 360's D pad placement. The D pad does seem a bit flimsy.

This controller has a lot of configuration options, its constructed well and works fine. As far as I know it is the choice for retro gaming.

What's great about it: Good price, Best I know of for Retro Gaming

What's not so great: D pad placement, D pad does seem a bit flimsy

I would recommend this to a friend!
